My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict!

“All right,” Grace said.

However, she then bit her lips and said hesitantly, “But when you show up with me over there, some of my relatives might give you a hard time. When that happens, don’t mind them.””

Jay gave her a faint smile. “Don’t worry, I won’t pay any
